"I have felt confident that my undergraduate training was far more than adequate while competing with other graduate students from a wide range of undergraduate schools." "I didn't realize it back then, but Utica College provided me with a strong foundation in general psychology... I think I would have been just as prepared to go to a clinical, social, or developmental program as I was for a program in experimental psychology.
